+Thinking about this a bit...\r
+\r
+The headers are likely to be different, so you could remove them (get\r
+rid of everything up to the first empty line).\r
+\r
+Various mailing lists add footers, so you would need to remove them (a\r
+regular expression based approach would catch most of them easily).\r
+\r
+The remaining content should be the same for identical messages, so a\r
+sensible hash (md5) could be used to compare.\r
+\r
+Although, some MTAs modify the body of the message when manipulating\r
+encoding. I don't know how to address this.\r
